ABSTRACT
This study investigated the effects of Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation on the structural, physicochemical, and digestive properties of foxtail millet starches. The fermented starch granules formed a structure with honeycomb-like dents, uneven pores, and reduced particle size. As the fermentation time extended, the amylose content of waxy (0.88 %) and non-waxy (33.71 %) foxtail millet starches decreased to the minimum value at 24 h (0.59 % and 29.19 %, respectively), and then increased to 0.85 % and 31.87 % at 72 h, respectively. Both native and fermented foxtail millet starches exhibited an A-type crystal structure. Compared with native samples, the fermented samples performed enhanced proportion of short-branched chain, crystallinity, and short-range ordered degree. After fermentation for 24 h, the solubility, adsorption capacity, and pasting viscosity of foxtail millet starches improved, whereas the swelling power, pasting temperature, breakdown, setback, and degree of retrogradation reduced. Additionally, fermentation increased the transition temperatures, enthalpy, and digestibility. Overall, Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation is considered a competent choice to regulate the characteristics of foxtail millet starch.
